Google Analytics

[Pixel Pirate]

is there a way to get Google Analytics stats imported into my site so they are update and it shows the stats to my members?

This is a great idea! I am going to see if I can pull this off on my own site. If I do I will report back!

I don't think there is, I haven't heard of any code or plugin as of yet. The data from analytics is mainly used for Webmaster's analysis on optimization and site improvements, so showing members this data is not really that popular.

Well I remember seeing it on another site, i do believe. So I think its possible.

Please do billybob.

WordPress plugins can do it, though I have no idea how they pull it off >.>

If WP can do it, forums should be able to as well (even if you have to run the php separately)

There is an API - http://code.google.com/apis/analytics/

Specifically the Data Export API - http://code.google.com/apis/analytics/d ... Guide.html

So it's more than possible

But you're going to need to be a pretty good coder in PHP (assuming phpBB3 forum) to pull it off

Ouch :\

So, if i understand this correctly, you'd need to make a php script that logs in using the AuthSub Proxy Authentication, gathers the data, and then you'd need to add a call to the variable in phpBB where you'd like the stats displayed?

Seems like something, if you really really wanted, would be best to hire a coder to do. Least in my case 😛
